Our Macrame Waxed Cords

4 Different Macrame Waxed Cords

 When it comes the time to start making Macrame the only absolutely indispensable thing is the thread/cord. I want to present to you our waxed cords available:

 1) Linhasita - waxed polyester cord: This is a well known brand in the world of Macrame. It is a high quality cord from Brazil and waxed evenly , with the right amount of wax. This waxed cord is round and twisted, giving it a certain pattern and the possibility to split the cord.

 2) CT Point - waxed polyester cord: Also a really high quality cord, waxed carefully. Unlike Linhasita, this waxed cord is flat and braid, it won't split easily and leaves almost no pattern, it is smooth. Spool or meter.

 3) CT Point - semi waxed polyester cord: Placed between Linhasita and CT Point waxed polyester cord it is flat braided but not as flat as the waxed one and not so round as Linhasita. And the braided aspect is more noticeable than the waxed cord. It is really smooth and it will give a more silky aspect to your creations.

 4) Cotton waxed cord: This is a good quality waxed cord from Spain, waxed a bit unevenly. Apart from that it is a great cord in a great material and very resistant and manageable. This type of cord is also flat braided, although not as tight as the CT Point polyester waxed cord. It has no pattern.
